Patient's question:
Hello, is there a difference between and when pregnant? Some people say that whether it's or , the chance of having a healthy baby is the same? If so, is it necessary for me to convert to to have a baby?Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis B can be spread from mother to child. The level of transmissibility mainly depends on the activity of the virus copies and the amount of viral load. Based solely on the results of the hepatitis B five-item test, the active copies of "big three positive" are more active than those of "small three positive," and have a relatively higher transmissibility. If you're not confident, you can get tested for hepatitis B virus DNA before pregnancy to check the viral load. This will make it safer to prevent mother-to-child transmission during pregnancy. In addition to timely treatment for liver disease, patients also need to pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life. A positive attitude is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you!
